Jack-O-Lantern sketch from sketch club today.

Some sketches I did today at Sketch Club. Octopi came up in conversation today!

Trying out some techniques I've learned about over the past few days and decided to try something of the more mechanical variety today. Was a fun process and I'd like to give it another try soon!

So a friend of mine who runs the Sketch Club I attend recommended I obtain a skull and draw it as often as possible to gain a stronger understanding of the structure that supports our face's muscles and skin. Well, the skull arrived last night and today I took some time to sketch the first still life I've drawn since college. It also gave me the chance to try out these gray scale brush pens I bought a little while back.

I could probably spend the rest of my life trying to tweak this painting. Instead I'm going to move on and call this finished.

"Dragon's Eye Cavern"

Spent a good portion of the day working on 'Dragon's Eye Cavern'. Here is a WIP snapshot of it so far.

Here is the under-painting for the digital painting of 'Dragon's Eye Cavern'

A few thumbnails for some landscape's I'd like to paint. Especially 'Dragon's Eye Cavern'

Here is an environmental painting I worked on today. Still trying to get a solid digital painting workflow down.

Today, after watching some interesting videos centered around digital painting over the weekend, I decided to carry out one of the techniques demonstrated. The process involved selecting some interesting landscape photographs, attempting to choose the colors in the photo by eye, and then utilizing a very small canvas to create 3 quick thumbnail drawings with the colors chosen.
